I will actually be living at home down the road from the school...I lucked out.
I hear that finding housing now is becoming very difficult so you really better start looking if you want to find a decient place, not to far, and for a price you can handle.
I suggest looking into the Glen Cove/Sea Cliff area...those towns seem to have more available places at lower prices than others around here. Just to warn you...The cost of living in Nassau County is very high! We get taxed beyond belief!

Hey guys! I'm Elaine, 22 and living in Manhasset, LI.
From what I understand NYCOM is either wireless already or will be very soon...everyone told me to get a wireless laptop.
I got that info. about the NY trip in the mail but I don't think that I will be attending...I think it's more for out-of-staters...gives those people a chance to experience NY.
Anyways...we should be getting orientation info. soon.
I can't wait to finally meet you guys...it'll be nice to get to know you all!

Hi everyone,
My name is Maria. I'm 23 and I live in Rockland County (upstate NY), was born and raised in the Bronx, and will soon to be moving to Glen Head.
I think that NYCOM is supposed to be fully wireless by this fall. It seems that these things always go past deadline, so I?m not holding my breath.
I'm a bit nervous, but really excited about starting and meeting everyone. Enjoy the rest of your summer and I'll see everyone in about 30 days

Hi! I'm Monica. I'm 24 years old. I grew up in Peru, moved to NJ when I was 18. Months later, I joined the Navy and moved to Norfolk, VA. I finished my undergrad in VA at ODU. And I'm excited about moving up from the dirty south (I'm 20 min away from NC) to the big bad North. I'll be moving to Hicksville in the next two weeks and I'll be meeting you guys on August 11th. I just got commisioned as an Ensign in the Navy , so I'm pretty excited. Any other HPSP first year students at NYCOM, feel free to PM me or e-mail me. Question: How far away is NYCOM from the beach? I have a medical condition, I can't live far away from the beach or I might die.
I'll see you guys soon!

NYCOM is about 10 minutes from the north shore, which has some smaller beaches, and about 20 minutes from the south shore, which has some great beaches. Glen Cove is where many 1st years live and it has it's own beach, albeit kinda small I think. Hicksville is more in the mid-island area, so you're about 15 minutes from either the north or south shores and a 20 minute train ride to manhattan.
Regarding wireless internet, plan for it. It should be up and running within the next few months from what I heard.
I havent heard anything about the white coat ceremony. Although, I did hear a rumor that the "official" cloaking of the white coats wont happen until second year now with some commitment ceremony taking place in the beginning of first year or something. Dont know any details, just heard it from a friend in the hospital yesterday.
enjoy.

Hey Blue_guitar9,
When I was at Colgate our hockey team was really good, but I could be wrong since I was hammered at all the games!! Don't sleep on Colgate grads, they can drink. Look forward to meeting you (and partying with, hopefully!!!) during orientation.

Wow! That's more Peruvians than the ones I've met in VA and I've lived here for 5 years! I hope those second-year Peruvians are not causing too much trouble at NYCOM DOnut. I guess I'll meet you all in August. Beware, two Peruvians, is OK but three? I hope NYCOM is ready for that.

ScheringPlough,
I was talking to one of the girls I know who went to colgate, who happens to be from NJ as well. I mentioned that someone from her school was going to be going to NYCOM with me and now were playing the "lets see how small this world is after all" game. So she was wondering what part of NJ you were from and if you had just graduated or if you did your masters.
Every one else,
Whats everyone doing this summer? I'm doing research at a lab located in the middle of nowhere. So needless to say I'm pretty bored most of the time, and Im actually looking forward to the social life I'll have once in med school. man i suck.
